A&S Academic Awards

Academic Scholarships

The College of Arts & Sciences offers a limited number of academic scholarships to incoming first year students as well as currently enrolled UK students with majors in the College. Awards are announced each April for the following academic year. Mid-year and summer awards are not made.

Entering freshman students must first apply to the University Academic Scholarship program. The College of Arts & Sciences will consider all students who list an A&S major on their university scholarship application for awards for which they are eligible.

Students currently enrolled in the College of Arts & Sciences should read the informational brochure and the 2007-08 application.
